Human Lessons #117 is a special collaboration episode with Mostra, featuring guest Nicolas Melmann. 
This episode was recorded from his live performance at Mostra in 2025. 

Nicolas reflects on this set:
'It was truly exciting to premiere my new album Música Aperta at the Mostra Festival, in such a carefully curated environment with an audience so devoted to the sound experience. The design of the space — in total darkness and surrounded by an exquisite sound system — created a collective sound meditation room for more than 10 hours each day, a unique experience that I had never seen at a festival before.

Música Aperta is an electroacoustic piece and immersive performance that explores the perception of time through sound. Using string textures, bowls, and organs, the music cultivates an atmosphere of active stillness and contemplation, inviting the exercise of deep listening. In this context, Mostra was the perfect place to express the concept of the album, which is essentially about creating a space of resistance to the fast pace of modern life. I'm super thankful to the festival team and the audience! "

@mostrabcn
Mostra is a project that comes straight from the heart. An independent, small-format festival of avant-garde and experimental electronic music which emerges as a counterpoint to the macro-festivals and the overcrowded, commercial and rather impersonal offerings of other large events held in Barcelona.

Human Lessons #117 - Nicolas Melmann(Live)@Mostra 2025 [Human Lessons × Mostra]

Solma - Loss
Fiber Bundle [ALC013 / Alliance]

Produced by Antoine Salmona aka Solma 
Mastered by Baptiste Langlois aka OTON
Artwork by Loïc Berger at Unité Services
Released by Alliance from Brussels, Belgium
Release Date: November 07th, 2025
Format - CD and Digital

Paris-based artist Solma delivers Fiber Bundle, a nine-track album deeply rooted in minimalism and psychedelia.

Co-founder of Virtual Forest Records, a key platform within the French low-end psychedelia scene, Solma sharpens his distinctive sound — moving fluidly between deep techno, mental tribe and halftime rhythms to build a dense yet spacious world of sound.

Drawing from the hypnotic pulse of modern deep techno and the vibrant energy of UK bass music, Fiber Bundle explores a precise and immersive approach to production. Each track unfolds as a self-contained environment, where repetition, texture and motion intertwine to form a meditative, psychedelic continuum.

Voal - Jinx 
ISO003

—

Voal — Vand and Shoal — reveal five more cuts on their home label ISOTOOP, taken from the pair’s time living together in Utrecht. Whereas the debut EP, ‘Saffron’, dropped the listener into psychedelic aesthetics and atypical rhythmic structures, the sequel ‘Jinx’ has a more crystal-cut vision of club music, made for no less exploratory dancefloors.

Possessing a natural progression almost as fluid as a contiguous live set, with imagination each track can form the basis of the next through the fingerprints of a barely-perceptible ghost leaving a piecemeal narrative impression, an exposure in negative that develops over repeated exposure to the five versatile tracks.

Relative to Saffron’s sidestepping repertoire, this latest EP goes for the jugular with insistent club dynamics from the get-go. Summoning steps on air, a self-contained package of breezy dancefloor initiation and escalation, all-in-one, and from the foothold of this thermal vortex Crosswind ups the drama with storm-hued dynamics and blustery club debris.

The knife of aesthetics is freshly sharpened for the flip: Jinx takes the record out of earthbound atmospheres and deep into sci-fi territory. A jigsawwing bassline seems to drill ever-deeper into an expanding landscape, as it does so uncovering small sonic treasures locked in the bedrock. A mirror to this scene, The Chain digresses with bubbling verve and psychedelic strut, a combo-finishing left hook that simultaneously holds playfulness alongside dour dramatics, a duality shared by vinyl-exclusive closing track Ouah, which blows out the lights with a smirk, and premium hallucinatory dub psychosis.

PREMIERE: Kaspiann - Mutamieli [fórum]

n his debut album, raptAGOG draws inspiration from imagined scenes of geological movement — tectonic plates shifting, subducting, and pressing against one another. This hidden but perpetual motion beneath us stores potential energy, waiting for the moment of release, when the earth begins to shift and reshape.

The album opens into a rugged, shifting landscape, where sounds roll and echo in gradual motion. This energy builds across the work, unfolding through cycles of tension and release. Earthy and textural sounds ground the work in a shifting and fracturing geology.

Written and Produced by Fred Small in Oslo, Norway.
Mastering by Eafhm at Secuencias Temporales Studio, México.
Released by Secuencias Temporales from Mexico
Release Date: November 3th 2025

[AI008] Tensal vs Komatssu - 'Pulchra Errata' [Vinyl Snippets]

Piante Vive - Clorophilla [OSL040]

01 Clorophilla
02 Linfa
03 Fotosintesi 
04 Altravas 
05 Corteccia 
06 Floema

This EP unfolds like the anatomy of a plant: each track embodies a vital element or process, contributing to the delicate balance that sustains life. The path here is more defined, mirroring the structured yet organic rhythm of growth. Roots, sap, leaves, respiration—each component resonates as a metaphor for connection and interdependence, reminding us that nothing in nature exists in isolation. Through sound, we trace the invisible threads that bind these elements together, evoking both fragility and resilience, silence and expansion. 

Piante Vive is not just a reflection on the plant world, but on our own need for grounding, transformation, and symbiosis.
